Crew-7 has arrived at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, USA, in the run-up to the International Space Station launch.
Crew-7 consists of ESA astronaut Andreas Mogensen, taking the role of Dragon spacecraft pilot, NASA astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli is commander, Satoshi Furukawa from JAXA and Konstantin Borisov from Roscomos are mission specialists.
This video shows scenes of Crew-7 arriving at the Kennedy Space Center, during launch rehearsal, and Andreas Mogensen training for his mission in space.
Andreas and Crew-7 will launch in the SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft Endurance from launch pad 39A. This is the launch pad for all crewed

The quest for the true value of the Hubble constant (H0) tension which gives a measure of the current expansion of the Universe is still on. The fervent debate today is about the discrepancy between the H0 values obtained from type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) and from the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMB), a radiation emitted from the early Universe close to its origin.
